3 Bedroom Apartment in Historic Downtown La Crosse, La Crosse

This grand 2800 sq. ft. apartment was home to the original Gundersen clinic (now Emplify Health), now a nationally recognized healthcare system in the La Crosse community. The building was constructed in 1870 and is on the list of national historic buildings in downtown La Crosse.
Located just steps from the La Crosse Convention Center, shops, and restaurants.
Some highlights include:
- A spacious and fully equipped kitchen including everything you need for a casual evening or a formal sit down dinner.
- Three large bedrooms including a King room with a new ensuite bath, a River room with one queen bed, and the Gundersen room with two queen beds. (The Gundersen room shares a wall with a bar so this room receives loud noise at night.)
- A moody Parlour that’s perfect for celebrating or relaxing contains a 60" smart TV, a chess and checkers pub table, and a vintage bar with barware.
- A wedding room that’s perfect for getting ready for the big event in your life. It’s versatile arrangement allows it to be used as a private office, a place for your morning coffee, or a meditation room.
- A large living room with an original brick fireplace with gas insert.
- Central air conditioning
- Licensed by the city of La Crosse
